Tom,
The client supplied format is mostly ignored by mapcache, so you should not
have issues with your existing services. The only case where it is not
ignored (and is irrelevant with the current issue of multiple formats per
tileset) is if you have set <format allow_client_override="true"> inside
your wms service definition, *and* the current request could not be
processed by directly returning a cached tile (i.e. assembling tiles was
requested)
